Intro: Welcome everyone to this week's update of the Top 44.
Today, we are here to mourn the loss of one of the Top 44's legends. Uptown Funk! has finally dropped off the chart today after racking up 44 weeks in the top 44. This started out as a confusion for classic rock, but then went on to break numerous records and raise the bar for future legendary contenders. One day, someone might dethrone this on the all time list, but no one may have a run quite as impressive as this song. Before we say goodbye to our most successful song of all time, let's give this song a well deserved tribute:
'Uptown Funk!' by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars. Containing elements of disco, boogie, and funk music, this song immediately reminded me of all the great oldies and classics that I used to hear when I was a kid. In fact, I loved it so much, I had it on repeat TWICE in the first week of hearing it. Rarely do I ever repeat a song in a single listening session. Now, this song smashed here on November 28, 2014, with a debut ranking of #5. The following week, it easily soared into the top 3 into the #3 spot. On December 12, 2014, this song's official run began as it soared into the #1 spot. For nine weeks, it reigned supreme on the charts and it looked like for a time, it was going to break all the records in the book, but unfortunately, it did not accomplish just that. In its 12th week on the chart, Ellie Goulding crashed the party and took the summit for 3 weeks straight with LMLYD. But Mark and Bruno weren't willing to give up easily! And they snatched that spot right back from her in its 15th week on the chart. They lasted another 3 weeks on top, but in their 17th week on the chart, their steam had finally run out. With a sad and heavy heart, they had to accept their fate and slowly fall down the chart just like the rest of the greats. But they knew deep down that it wasn't the weeks at the top that mattered, it was the number of points that did. In its 18th week, they handed the summit back to Ellie without a fight and slowly began its decent. They lasted another 3 weeks in the top 5, and in its 22nd week, they learned their song's top 5 success was over. By the time the smoke had cleared, they had spent a 2nd best 12 weeks at #1, a record 18 weeks in the top 3, and a record 21 weeks in the top 5.
After UF!'s 21 week run in the top 5, it would go on and last another 23 weeks on the chart. And comparing it to the other legends, no other song had a downfall that long. On the way down the chart, it would rack up another 8 weeks in the top 20. It would also pick up 2 spikes of popularity, helping give it that extra boost.
Outside the Top 44, UF! would go on to win the Winter Tournament as a #1 overall seed, make the Sweet 16 as a #1 seed again (#3 overall), and complete a Cinderella run to the Summer Championship and win as a #8 seed (#30 overall). An impressive resume for a song that truly earned everything it accomplished. Thank you Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars for truly and probably the best song I've heard in a LONG time. You will be missed dearly. RIP. :'(
In remembrance of UF!, the commentary this week will run silent and the chart will display in shades of black and grey. Comment what you like happening as you always do, but please refrain from using emojis relating to happiness if commenting about UF!. Again, thank you for tuning in to this week's update.

Also Hotline Bling climbing! 44 weeks happened to be partly a coincidence. I was planning on retiring it at 41 weeks, but because UF! won the tourney and also b/c of my extended family, it spiked and it lasted another 3 weeks. And as always, thanks. Nice tribute to Uptown Funk and I agree that it was such an amazing song! Happy for The Hills regaining the top spot and On My Mind rising! :) Thanks. I can see OMM reaching top 5 easily.

It happens. Can't wait for your next chart! Perhaps "Hotline Bling" could be your next number one? :O Hopefully!

Thanks for reminding me, one sec please. 144 seconds later (laughs) OK, I'll stop. WDYM? and The Hills both took heavy losses and Drake made up all those lost points.

Aww @ UF :'(
Anyways, I also came to suggest a song you should hear: "Something Better" by Audien/Lady Antebellum (It's totally unexpected of Lady A to do a EDM track first and foremost plus it's surprisingly very good and it has been my #1 song for a few weeks now!)
I wouldn't be too surprised to see "Uptown Funk" to come back alive in a few weeks tbh (I started liking it again btw after several weeks of not hearing it from being burned out on it)
Its amazing what 1 song can do!

Intro: (phone rings)
- Hello? - Hey Jake, we have a new #1 on your chart. - Do we? Let's find out and tell our viewers what it is then.
(hangs up)
Hello and welcome back to the top 44, where we are now near the midway point of the Fall Tracking period. And as the songs are tallying up the last points of the 2015 season, makes you wonder if we'll see any surprises or not on the YE chart. I gave you guys a little hint of what the new #1 is in the introduction and if you've been following closely, you would've figured out it is from another Canadian artist. That's right, in its 5th week on the Top 44, Drake secures his first #1 and the chart's 31st #1 with "Hotline Bling." The song gains 9 points as well, giving it a 4 point lead over its competition. Below "Bling," Justin Bieber stays a 2nd week at #2 with "What Do You Mean?." Despite the loss, it was low enough to keep it in the top 2 for a 6th week. Falling 2 spots after returning to #1 for a 3rd week is "The Hills" from The Weeknd.
Moving up a spot to #4 on the Top 44 and securing 4 points along the way is Shawn Mendes with "Stitches" and also moving up a spot to #5 is Ellie Goulding with "On My Mind." With the rise of both songs, 4 Canadians currently dominate the top 4 and for the first time in chart history, no Americans are in the top 5. That's right, 4 Canadians and 1 UK artist currently dominate the top 5.
R. City's "Locked Away," featuring Adam Levine, falls 4-6, X Ambassador's "Renegades" rises 2 spots and back to its peak of #7, Beck's "Dreams" rises 10-8, Calvin Harris' "How Deep is Your Love" falls 7-9, and The Weeknd falls 8-10 with "Can't Feel My Face." The only song from an American act I could see with a chance to make top 5 for now is "Renegades," so enjoy the foreign dominance.
Below the top 10, Alessia Cara's "Here" rises 13-12, Major Lazer's "Powerful," featuring Ellie Goudling and Tarrus Riley, rises 16-14, Meghan Trainor and John Legend both bolt back into the top 20 as "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" rises 29-19, and Zedd secures his 5th top 20 from True Colors with "Papercut," featuring Troye Sivan. The board's sole new entry is Jess Glynne's "Hold My Hand" at #28.

"Here" almost Top 10! Also exciting to see "Alive," "Ex's and Oh's," and "Nothin' Like You" making some progress. "On My Mind" is really looking like a future #1...can't wait to see how that turns out. Great chart and very good narration. :)
